2 0 0 2
AIM:
To provide technical knowledge to integrate sound control in relation to building functions.
OBJECTIVES:
To understand the science behind acoustical design.
To expose students to understand noise control and sound transmission and absorption.
To familiarize the students with various building and interior elements which lend to better
hearing conditions.
To familiarize the students with the basic principles of acoustic design for spaces and
building types which require good hearing conditions.

CONTENT:
UNIT I FUNDAMENTALS 5
Sound waves, frequency, intensity, wave length, measure of sound, decibel scale, speech and
music frequencies, human ear characteristics - Tone structure.
UNIT II SOUND TRANSMISSION AND ABSORPTION 6
Outdoor noise levels, acceptable indoor noise levels, sonometer, determinate of density of a
given building material, absorption co-efficient and measurements, choice of absorption
material, resonance, reverberation, echo, exercises involving reverberation time and absorption
co-efficient.
UNIT III NOISE CONTROL AND SOUND ABSORPTION 5
Types of noises, transmission of noise, transmission loss, noise control and sound insulation,
remedial measures and legislation.
